| High impedance Speakers The Tonian TLM-1's are 16 ohm and are some of the very best yet least known speakers I'm aware of. | |
| Tannoy Super Tweeter ST 100 It is a nice product but does not compare to the quality of the Murata super tweeter IMHO. | |
| Which Solid State Amplifier is Making you Happy? Not for your speakers, but as someone formerly devoted to SET's and/or OTL's I am thrilled with my DNM PA3 amp and DNM 3Dsix pre.Only 23 watts SS so sensitive speakers are still a must. | |
| Speaker Efficiency Question? Buy a 16 ohm Tonian Lab TLM1 at 98db sensitivity and don't worry about any of this... just enjoy the music :-) | |
| Re-tubing Audiomat Arpege. Suggestions? I second giving Nick a call...he knows this stuff. I think he will tell you to stick with tubes from Mutine.Kurt | |
| 16 ohm speakers: Pros & cons The advantage to me is that my favorite speaker to date is 16 ohm (my Tonian lab TLM-1's) As stated above... TWL and Jeffeybehr have it right.If someone else's favorite is 4ohm... great! | |
| CES05: Tonian Labs: comments I have owned these speakers for about 12 months and am constantly amazed by what they do....maybe not everyones cup of tea but they are mine. There are only a couple of other speakers I've heard that still intrigue me. | |
| More power for my Duos? I also would recommend the Audiopax...while I did not specifically use the Avantgarde I was using a 103 db horn and had both the Audiopax 88 mono's and a pair of wavelentgh custom 45's which were designed to be superior to the venus. I also had a ... | |
| best solid state amp for emmlabs dcc2/cdsd combo Dartzeel and Goldmund would be a couple to look at. I have the 18.4's with the emm combo and think it is excellent...and this from a die hard tube guy. | |

| Anyone Using Gradient Loudspeaker? Speaking of Mr. Linkwitz...I had the great pleasure to visit with him at his home in Marin CA recently and listen to some of his recordings through his Orion dipoles.Mr. Linkwitz describes this (Orion) as the culmination of his years of research a... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? I have not done the comparison but it would be interesting to hear the Exemplar Denon 2900 compared to the DV-50. I have heard the Exemplar and it is an outstanding unit and great value. It is also apples to apples as a universal player. | |
| Transport with volume control? Thanks all for the helpful information. My understanding is that the course VC on the Goldmund is more of a level match than useful line attenuation hence the need to have some form oof extenal atenuation.I will pursue some of the routes suggested. | |
| Traditional looking speakers There are a pair of Audio Note speakers in your price range on A-gon. These are excellent speakers particularly for the type of music you describe and are about as traditional looking as you can get.PS I have nothing to do with the seller | |
| Is Exemplar the answer? I think the exemplar modded denon is excellent and a terrific value.John is also a great guy to deal with. |
